Barcelona music festivals: Primavera Sound, Sónar & Cruïlla

The Time Out Barcelona office has been abuzz with news of confirmed and added acts for our city's three big music festivals of the season: Primavera Sound (June 2-4), Sónar (June 16-18) and Cruïlla (July 8-10). With PS and Sónar so close together this year, if you're coming from abroad, you might as well just stick around and enjoy the city for a couple of weeks while you recover from one and get ready for the next. There is, after all, plenty to do in Barcelona, in case you hadn't heard. Later in the summer it's the little sister of the biggies, Cruïlla, which is growing up more every year. Bear in mind that the prices of all the festivals start (relatively) low and increase over time as the festival dates draw near. So check your bank balance, grab your sunscreen and your trendiest festival gear, and find out now who's playing when so you can plan your summer holidays accordingly.
